It has been implemented as part of universal screening efforts in thousands of busy medical and community health settings\, as it yields information that can serve as the basis for early intervention and patient-centered counseling. \nThe CRAFFT is the most well-studied adolescent substance use screener available and has been shown to be valid for adolescents from a variety of socioeconomic and racial/ethnic backgrounds. It is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics’ Bright Futures Guidelines for preventive care screenings and well-visits\, the Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services’ Early and Periodic Screening\, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) program\, and the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) Youth Screening Guide. \nThe current version of the tool\, the CRAFFT 2.1\, includes evidence-based revisions to increase the sensitivity and specificity of the tool and includes vaping as a method of administration for marijuana use.

SUMMARY:Partnership for Integrated Care Webinar on The Pediatric Symptom Checklist
DESCRIPTION: Please join The Partnership for Integrated Care’s Webinar on \nThe Pediatric Symptom Checklist\nThursday\, February 13th\, 2025\n12:00 PM – 12:30 PM \nTo register for this event\, use this link:\n \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/RsjgNM0PTkiywuQPaIIdww#/registration\n\nPlease stay tuned for upcoming dates for additional learning collaborative offerings sponsored by The Partnership for Integrated Care. For technical assistance\, please email Konstantin Nadirashvili at knadirashvili@iuany.org. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Training \n\n\n\n\nThe Pediatric Symptom Checklist (PSC) is a 35-item parent-report questionnaire designed to identify children and adolescents with difficulties in psychosocial functioning. Its primary purpose is to alert pediatricians at an early point about which children and adolescents would benefit from further assessment.[1] A positive result on the overall scale indicates that the child in question would benefit from further evaluation. It is not a diagnostic tool.[2] The PSC has subscales which measure inner distress and mood\, interpersonal relations and behavior\, and attention. The PSC is also used in pediatrics and other settings to measure changes in psychosocial functioning over time. Michael Jellinek\, MD\, created the PSC and has researched it over more than thirty years in collaboration with J. Michael Murphy\, Ed.D. and other investigators. The PSC has been used in more than 200 studies in the US and other countries and has been endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics\, the state of Massachusetts\, the government of Chile and many other organizations. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMeet the Trainer: Dr. Cody Hostutler \n\n\nDr. Cody Hostutler is a pediatric primary care psychologist at Nationwide Children’s Hospital and associate professor in the department of pediatrics at The Ohio State University. Dr. Hostutler’s career is focused on improving the behavioral health (BH) care patients and families receive within their primary care medical home through practice innovation\, interprofessional education\, and research. Specifically\, he has worked within interdisciplinary teams to develop and scale innovative models of primary care integration; consult\, train\, and mentor primary care teams and medical residents on BH skills; and has co-authored a textbook supporting skills development for medical providers (Mental Health Strategies for Pediatric Care).\n\n\nThe Partnership for Integrated Care – a collaborative of InUnity Alliance and the NYS Council for Community Behavioral Healthcare\, funded by NYSOMH\, OASAS\, and the NY Community Trust\, is committed to helping behavioral health organizations around NYS to further integrate care for people with mental health\, substance use\, and medical challenges. https://www.partnershipforintegratedcare.org
